SuDS - SUSTAINABLE URBAN DRAINAGE SYSTEMA sustainable urban drainage system (SuDS) is an alternative to the traditional pipes, gullies and culverts approach to a development and its drainage strategy. A SuDS system comprises components and techniques that are deemed to be more sustainable and deal with storm water at source.
Sustainable urban drainage systems (SuDS) mimic natural drainage processes by employing these three key principles: water quality, water quantity and biodiversity/amenity.
The Roadstone Aquaflow system provides the means to not only achieve but excel in the three key SuDS principles. Through considerate design, careful selection of techniques and materials, the Roadstone Aquaflow blocks and the Roadstone Aquaflow system deliver the following benefits:
• Reducing water quantity - Dealing withsurface water at the source reduces the effectsof urbanisation and the impact of localised flooding
• Improving water quality - RoadstoneAquaflow. provides two levels of storm watertreatment: removing harmful pollutants and protecting the environment downstream
• Contributing to the biodiversity -Contributing to the biodiversity of developmentby working in conjunction with other SuDS techniques. Roadstone Aquaflow. allows any hard standings, including roads, to be used as drainage, producing a traditional looking surface with many desirable features.

AQUAFLOW® PAVING SOLUTION
AQUAFLOW® system
Roadstone Aquaflow has used research and design to evolve the Roadstone Aquaflow permeable paving system into one of the most cost effective and functional SuDS within the marketplace.
The Roadstone Aquaflow system has a unique sub-base design incorporating SC Intergrid which reduces construction costs whilst giving superior structural performance. Water quality improvement is realised through the use of our tried and tested Inbitex Geotextile which removes the requirement
for downstream pollution control. The patented Roadstone Aquaflow system fits neatly within any block paving project, where your paving design becomes your drainage design and vice versa.
Roadstone Aquaflow SuDS can be designed as fully attenuation, fully infiltration or as a partial infiltration system. Attenuation (tanked) systems capture storm water to be collected and released in a controlled manner into sewers and downstream watercourses. Infiltration systems allow rainwater
to be infiltrated into the ground mimicking a green field environment. Storm water leaving the Roadstone Aquaflow system is cleaned and filtered through the Inbitex Geotextile layers that promote microbial action. Water quality improvement allows secondary non-potable uses to be carried out such as flushing toilets and watering the garden. The Roadstone Aquaflow system can be designed for use in both trafficked and pedestrianised areas, allowing the collection and treatment of storm water
from any paved surface.
Advantages of Roadstone Aquaflow
• Dealing with storm water at source
• Reduces water quantity
• Improves water quality
• Lowers construction costs
• Allows collection of storm water from impermeable surfaces
• Improved maintenance programme.

There are four basic systems designs (see below). Each design can be tailored for infiltration or tanked according to requirements.

Typical footpath constructionFor Aqua�ow
InfiltrationThe system is underlaid with a pervious geotextile membrane (Inbitex®) and is suitable for use where it is proposed to infiltrate the water directly into a suitable sub-grade.
TankedThe system is underlaid by an impervious plastic membrane (SC membrane) and is suitable for use where it is proposed to attenuate storm water before releasing it in a controlled manner, harvest the water for re-use or where difficult or contaminated sub-grades are encountered.
The type of membrane used and the method of sealing will depend upon the application. In some circumstances, the membrane will require additional protection from puncturing and specialist advice should be obtained.
The impervious membrane restricts water entering the sub-grade and preserves sub-grade structural integrity. This is very important where clay subgrades are encountered.
